On April 5, he'll be at The Hyatt Regency in his hometown New Orleans and April 8 you can catch him in Baton Rouge at the XO Nightclub.
NOLA.com reports tickets for his New Orleans stop can be purchased through EventBrite.com and tickets for the Baton Rouge show at XO Nightclub can be purchased through the club and prices start at $50. For more details and VIP tickets, call 225-937-1090.
Before it's all said and done, Lil Wayne will bring his "Release Partiez" tour to Mississippi and Tennessee, with more dates to be added at a later time. By the way, look for Weezy's video on the Coco remix to premiere sometime next month.
